My neighbors two border collies look a lot like Lola, but they are working cattle dogs. They'd eat the ferret They killed at least three foxes this spring
and summer. I love those two for keeping it real.
Lola would prolly lick a fox. |

Has she ever seen sheep? I read a book on border collies instinctually going into herding mode..

She herds the ferrets. I'm taking her to see sheep before the end of summer. We've been too busy with agility and disc.

Your children are very cute. I think it's mean that you keep them caged up though.

Don't listen to the haters; you have a nice house. I've seen the pictures of the inside and it is very pretty. Not my kind of living, but still
gorgeous.
Containered bamboo would be perfect; but you want above ground containers so that you can monitor the roots. That stuff is a bitch if it gets out of control. I love your deck furniture, the style and the colour. ps Free the Ferrets! |

I had a herding dog once and a litter of kittens - he seriously kept trying to herd the kittens - by the time I got rid of the kittens he was a nervous wreck

There is a reason for the exaggerated phrase "like herding cats"
I had four at the height of my city cat owning days. 40 - two year old kids on a sugar high playdate are easier to manage. |

my backyard's big enough to throw frisbees or tennis balls for my dogs - of course, I do have a small 50s house

I like old houses in the city. They have character.

Character = leaking plumbing and questionable electrical wiring.
I know because I am addicted to houses with character. |
